View From A Hill

I visited three nature reserves last week. In three different municipalities. And climbed up three hills. This was the second one. At Käringboda in Nynäshamn. It was a great Spring day, perfect for a combined bike ride/trek. This hill can be found at Sågen, overlooking the Nynäsviken Bay. The view back towards Nynäshamn is well worth the climb. On my way up I scared away a white-tailed eagle. These houses are located at Gröndalsviken and shows pretty well the differences in houses in this port city. I shot the last photo down by the water and it shows the hill that I climbed.

Vinsberget

It has been an unusually warm Autumn. This last weekend was no exception. Together with two of the usual suspects, I decided it was time for another visit to the Käringboda nature reserve in Nynäshamn. On our previous visit, we checked out the beach and the rural surroundings on a glorious Summer day. This time we decided to climp up a hill. The Vinsberget. You don't need a breathing apparatus at 63 meter above sea level so it was a nice hike. The view was pretty good if you ask me. Top photo shows a bay called Svartfjärden. Second and third photos gives you a look at Gröndalsviken. The fourth one speaks for itself. The fifth photo shows a few houses at a street called Fågelvägen which is a bit of a pun. It translates to Bird Street, but it is also a saying that means the shortest wasy between two places. The last shot shows you the two Super-post Panamax cranes at the brand new port in Nynäshamn. The wind picked up after a while so we decided it was time to leave.

This Way

I snapped this very 2020 photo over the weekend while visiting the Käringboda nature reserve. A few photos that makes more sense from my visit to come tomorrow. The fine people at Utata liked this one so you can read a few words at the Front Page thanks to Greg.

There ain't no such thing as a free lunch

The caretaker Mikael and a few people working for him, including this teenage girl, were busy fixing the boardwalk and the jetty down at the Gravamaren beach in the Käringboda nature reserve in Nynäshamn when we arrived. We broke the rules and drove all the way down to the beach. Mikael gave us the evil eye before asking us if we were just unloading the car before driving the car back up to the parking lot, so we said, yes that is precisely what we are doing. When we left an hour later after our BBQ, we bribed the caretaker with a chorizo sausage that he gave to the teenage girl.

Where are we?

Gravamaren

I made two visits to the Käringboda nature reserve in Nynäshamn in the last week. These photos are from a walk from Grava to the little beach at Gravamaren. Amazing weather. A perfect Swedish Summer day, which means that everything was lagom.
